Restrictions / Citation of the dataset:

Anyone who works for a Category 1 or Category 2 organisation (as defined in the Civil Contingencies Act 2004) can access Hazard Manager. However, some of the services available through this portal will be restricted to approved users. For example, Flood Forecasting Centre (FFC) products are only available for England and Wales, and FireMet and CHEMET are only available for subscribed users.

An estimated 206,000 people have been affected by floods in 15 Local Government Areas (LGA) in Adamawa State, since 30 August, and 42,800 people evacuated or displaced. The floods were triggered by spillage due to damage at the Dadin Kowa dam in Gombe State, which in turn caused an overflow at Kiri Dam located downstream in Adamawa State. Heavy rainfall worsened the flooding.
